Ok -- she would be GREAT as Eponine. And, she'd kick some serious butt as Elphaba in Wicked also -- she should do either musical in the future -- she'd rock! She is similar to Idina in the face, a little bit, otherwise, I don't really get the whole comparison thing, they have completely different voices.
She quite honestly brought me to tears. I love this song and I most certainly love her. I love the gLee version, but it doesn't do her ability justice at all... Wow, Lea Michele, ladies and gentlemen.
she did this song beautifully on the pilot 4 glee. I am a singer and can totally tell when there is amazing talent and gifts in a voice. this voice is like a 50 on a 1-10 scale!!! you go Lea Michele!
i feel like lea solanga's version doesn't have the stunningly believable emotion that this one has. both of their voices are amazing, but i love this one more! :)
People should not compare this version anyway as it was taken outdoors with a hand held Handi-Cam compared to a digitally mastered version by Lea Solonga that is usually shown. Both ladies do a fabulous job!!
I wonder why people ALWAYS feel the need to compare!!! Why can't Lea Michele be great and Lea Solonga be great also! Why does everyone feel the need to say someone is better than the other. They're both wonderful or else they wouldn't be there!
I was just thinking that Lea's version of this song was just ok and then she sang "a world thats full of happiness that I have ever known" and that proved me wrong. Damn!
I have seen numerous Eponines and I respect them all greatly and think they are talented but I have to say none blew me away as much as Lea. Her portrayal is powerful and her voice is GORGEOUS. She's too amazing for words.
i feel the same way! it's not just cuz i love her from being in Spring Awakening or that she is one of my favorite actresses, but yeah...she is definitly one of a kind =)
OMG, I was at this performance... and surprise, she made me cry with this... :-) So sad her cabaret was sold out this weekend... instead I watched Spring Awakening in San Diego without her in it today... :-(
her voice is beautiful! deffo for eponine on broadway!

I love the fact that, even after she turned down this role in the revival to be in Spring, she still nails this.
my god I love Lea.

I like Lea Salonga's version better. Diction and quality of voice are important.

True... personally, I think both their voices fit Eponine just fine. What do you you think of Michele as Fantine?

@jastully: 21 or 22? It was after she left Spring Awakening, so that would make her at least 21.
